    About £60 customs if you paid around the £300 mark.

    Slow and patient is the art to fitting them - although enthusiasm to see the finished product makes that difficult.;)

    Or you could just ring them and find out what you need to pay. That's what I did, just googled a few numbers and got through to who I needed to speak to.

    Paid the money and they organised forwarding the parcel on through the courier...... Will speed things up a bit.

    Mine was sat in customs longer than it took too travel from China. Its probably just sat there waiting:rolleyes:

    Any threads for swapping fairings would be helpful, youtube hasnt got many videos..

    I have had the rear tail fairing off quite a few times , gotta be careful with that !
    Belly pan and tank should be easy as ive had them off , its just the nose cone and side fairings im not too sure about ...

    I relied heavily on this one. Had to pause a few times but it helped immensely:

    Great news...... I asked for a clear screen with mine!

    There are a few threads on here about fitting fairings and nose cone. That video that Nigel has posted is for 2012 onwards bike's so fairings are slightly different but if it helped him it may help you. I used one of the threads on here. ;)
